Close to the sidewalk, shaded under trees, an odd duck is on the market.

At 15016 Kittridge, a property for sale by owner, a mansard shingled roof hangs across the front of the house, a remodeling relic dating back to the late 1960s and early 70s. The 1,395 s.f. house was built in 1951 and has 3 beds and 2.5 baths.

Architectural theatricality, common in West Hollywood, is rarer in Van Nuys.
